There is a gem nestling in the heart of Haddenham tucked back from Churchway sitting in its own grounds. Stonehill House is home for 11 residents and run by a devoted team of carers headed by Lindsey McGibbon, an extremely hardworking and dedicated Care Manager and her efficient deputy, Sarah Warren.

Together their main priority is to ensure that the ladies and gentlemen in their care are happy, secure and well looked after. This includes maintaining the residents’ independence as far as possible.

Residents are encouraged to take part in the many activities in the village e.g. WI, church events and to use the extensive private gardens made easier by level paths and patios. The home has a bank of volunteers who visit regularly to spend time with the residents.

They provide many different types of support including a specific volunteer for each resident to speak to on a regular basis, group activities, outings, art & card making, music, poetry and pastoral care. Time freely given is one of the most important elements for the residents. More volunteers are needed and always welcome

Four of the rooms are without bathrooms. With this in mind we would like to improve the facilities for the comfort of our residents. Planning permission has been granted to build an extension to accommodate 4 ensuite bathrooms which will make this possible.

We are a registered charity and therefore extra special projects, such as this, are funded by external funds which we are seeking from this particular fundraising push through donations, grants and special fundraising activities.
